The idea of the normal woman being depicted as some one living on strings is a fascinating bit of symbolism. Over the course of ten minutes, the animation depicts her as someone being held up by strings who seeks independence almost immediately.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">It&#8217;s a hard row to hoe though as she breaks through walls and is brought in to rebirth with a conveyor belt giving birth to babies. After an interesting sequence involving the sorting of babies it&#8217;s fascinating to see this character peg their own holes, and ultimately accept their own fates. When she finally finds her stride and she seeks out becoming a mother as a sense of adventure. Est\u00e9vez, who also animates, successfully conveys the struggles and joys of motherhood through a montage of pictures that feel so down to Earth and human.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">There isn&#8217;t one moment in the silent short that doesn&#8217;t feel sincere or genuine toward the audience who will be able to connect with the woman in spite of their inherent differences. Est\u00e9vez&#8217;s work of art watches so much like stop motion interpretive dance, and she&#8217;s about communicating strong feelings through motion and subtle nuances that can&#8217;t be punctuated with speaking language. It&#8217;s fine work of art That I want more people to see down the road.<\/p>\n<p><strong>This year, the 5th edition of Film Maudit 2.0, Highways&#8217; showcase and celebration of outr\u00e9 films, runs Thursday June 12th to Sunday June 16th.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Director and Writer Sonia Est\u00e9vez&#8217;s short stop motion film is a beautiful depiction of the life span of the normal woman and how she perceives their existence as a whole.
